Same Sex Attraction

​The topic of same sex attraction is a big topic today. So I’ll share my position with you.

Your Conscience as Your Guide
I see the topic of same sex attraction as a complex issue that includes psychological and biological factors. The best approach to same sex attraction is to let your conscience be your guide. The Light of Messiah – our conscience – is given to all men to know right from wrong – John 1:9.
 
 
Becoming Like God
For people who have same sex attraction, they may want to consider that the God of Heaven is a creator-god. We see this most dramatically in the creation story of the world and of Adam and Eve. So then to be like God is to be a creator-being too.
 
 
Why is Being a Creator Important
In previous chapters, we introduced the concept that man’s consciousness or self-awareness is eternal – it has always existed in the past and will always exist in the future. These self-aware identities wanted to become like God – to know good and evil. This process to know good and evil requires a spirit and mortal body. God empowers men and women through fertilization and pregnancy to give these identities a mortal body so they could progress to become like Him.
 
Without man’s and woman’s power to create life, pre-mortal identities don’t have the opportunity to become like God.

​God placed a veil of forgetfulness over our minds of our pre-mortal life to test our resolve to choose right over wrong and good over evil.
